SAMUEL GOMPERS PASSER THE LIE Says That He Never Promised To Deliver Labor Vote To Any Party.

HE PREDICTED CENSURE.

POLITICAL STAND BRINGS DOWN A STORM OF ABUSE UPON HIS HEAD, BUT IT WAS NOT UNEXPECTED. "

Washington, July 31. "The report that I have ever said that I would or would not deliver the labor vote to any political party Is an infamous lie." Such was the vigorous expression of Samuel Gompers in denying the report that he would deliver the vote of organized labor to the Democracy. Continuing Mr. Gompers said: "Organized labor is not only honest, but intelligent enough to choose the .party for Its suport which will best represent its Interests. "It Is possible by lies and misrepresentations that the foes of organized labor may injure me personally and even be successful in accomplishing my overthrow as president of the American Federation of Labor," said Mr. Gompers, "but that will never change my course in battling for the principles for which I stand. Says He Expected Fight. "It is not a question of politics with me. I have no politics, or if I have they are the politics of the people. "I fully expected when I took the stand! which I have," said Mr. Gompers, "that some would disagree with me. I don't expect the labor world to accept my conclusions In every instance. I expected to be criticized, too. Id some quarters, but I did not think that the criticism would be so unjust as to be contemptible. I stand for the right of individual opinion. "I regard my position of president of the American Federation of Labor as the most exalted and honorable in this world to which I could ever aspire. It is a sacred trust with which my fellows have honored me because of my convictions and the principles 'which I advocate. "They may take that honor away from me if they like, and I will bow to their will. But it will not prevent me from fighting for the cause which is my life's work, Just as I have in the past and as I propose to do in the future. Desires No Political Office. "I want no political office or honor. I have nothing for sale and don't propose to begin this late day by selling my honor. What I think and what I say is from conscientious conviction that it is the truth. No one can make me sacrifice my honest conviction. "My editorial in the American Federation plainly and forcefully sets forth my position. He who reads may read and understand. Those who have taken issue with the position therein set forth do not understand me. Those who have denqun'ced the position I am alleged to have assumed are political renegades and discredited outcasts of ' labor. I do not mean that those who differ with, my opinion are such, but .those who have denounce me and claim that I have not set forth the 'facts as they really exist." Frank H. Hitchcock, republican national chairman, when asked as to the truth of the report tnat a personal I campaign was to be waged against Mr. Gompers, replied: "Nothing of the lilnd has been arranged."

THEY MAKE YOU BELIEVE

Because They Prove All They Claim. There is no room for doubt when so many people of good standing are anxious to tell their friends of the great good received from the use of Root Juice. At this point many have been cured or greatly benefitted of rheumatism, catarrh, Indigestion, female weakness or some liver, kidney or stomach trouble, no wonder one friend is often heard advising another to try Root Juice. If you bloat and belch, if food lays heavily on the stomach and pains, if what you eat does not give you strength, If you have swimming of the head, if you are nervous and your entire system Is run down, If you are restless at night and feel as tired in the morning as you did when you went to bed, be governed by the experience of others and go to Luken's drug store, get a bottle of Root Jnlce and take it exactly according to directions. We predict that before you have used one bottle you will be advising your sick friends to get some of this wonderful medicine for Root Juice always proves all that is claimed for it. $1 a bottle, 3 bottles for $ 2.50 at A. G. Luken's drug store.

The Black Hand By ALFRED HENRY LEWIS Do you know, Mr. American, that there are thirty thousand Italian thieves in New York City today? Thirty thousand organized bLzckmaiUrs t That they extort six mQlion dollars a year from the Italians on Manhattan Island ? That in the last four months they have wrecked fifteen houses with bombs ? That more are coming in every day and that the police absolutely can't handle them ? It is time for every one of us to think about these things because some day this Sicilian murder ring is going to get more ambitious and begin on us. Alfred Henry Lewis has written us an article that makes this whole Black Hand game as plain as daylight. He proposes a remedy, too, and so does Joseph Petrosini, the chief detective of the Italian squad at Police Headquarters in New York. For downright sheer midnight mystery, murder and hair-breadth escapes you had better read this article. Other special articles on "Liquor's Fight Against Prohibition," on Airships," on "Buncoing Americans Abroad," and the cleverest Summer fiction you ever read. August Broadway
